Research on the Spatial-Temporal Evolution of Medical and Economic Coordination Development in Provincial Regions of China / 中国卫生经济

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore of the medical and economic coordination development in provincial regions of China and its spatial-temporal evolution so as to provide new thought for researching the relationship between medical and economic growth.Methods:Based on physics concept and retated research,coordination development model was built to analyze the medical and economic coordination development in provincial regions of China.The exploratory spatial data analysis was used to analyze its spatial-temporal evolution.Results:There were certain progresses on medical and economic coordination development in provincial regions of China.Transition class regions were in the majority,while coordinated and unbalanced class regions were in the minority.The medical and economic coordination development degrees were agglomerated spatially.Both high and low values of medical and economic coordination development degrees are agglomerated obviously.Hot and sub-hot regions were mainly distributed in eastern and central China,while cold and sub-cold regions were mainly distributed in western China.Conclusion:Coordination development model could be applied for researching the medical and economic coordination development in provincial regions of China which provided new basis for further research on the relationship between medical and economic growth.
